All yours

Forget the name of the file, I know is not a butterfly

Tried Rainmeter with the Enigma theme but don't have time to think about deskmod right now

As some of the guys said: MAFIA. The story is as good as a good movie

The original Ghost Recon, Manhunt, Manhunt 2, Rune, Commandos series, Scarface...

Quote from Chrisuu01 :

Oh okay that makes a little more sense then.

But does the printer give you a specific error and what kind of printer is it?

Well, probably I didn't explain myself properly in the first post, so I'll try again.

I have to make a composition (3d renders, sketches, etc) in a paper of size 210x60 cm (just realized 168x60 wasn't enough). I usually print in A3 so I have not previous experiences printing something that big. I started to create the file and noticed that 300ppi is too heavy, just insane, so I was wondering if 150ppi is enough for a good quality. I'm also interested about the memory limit that a decent ploter usually has. Of course I'm not gonna print the Photoshop file, I usually do it in JPEG, but just in case. Suggestions about this as well? I don't wanna spend X amount of € printing it and have as result a blurry and crappy presentation.

Thanks for your patience

JJ72, what is the advantage of TIFF format?

Quote from Chrisuu01 :

Sorry but if ps is your girlfriend why do u use Photoshop to draw??...

Did I say I'm using it to draw?
What I'm doing is the composition with previous scanned pencil sketches, photoshop renders, 3d renders, etc

Quote from Chrisuu01 :

You know what any of those numbers that you put in mean?
As in ppi(Pixels Per Inch)

Sure I do

Quote from Chrisuu01 :

I mean whats the big deal on my school we easily print documents of plus 100 MB(believe me if you try this stuff on a windows it makes sense windows pc's are not made for this).
But stil printers should be more then capable to print this size of documents, what you are probably doing wrong is printing as a pds.

I usually print in A3 at 300 or 100ppi but this time is the exam so we need a bigger paper and is the first time I do it, that's why I'm asking for advice

Quote from Chrisuu01 :

...But you don't need that kind of stuff what i think you need is decent graphical knowhow.
Not to be mean but you seem to lack it.

No offense don't worry, but what do you exactly mean?

Quote from Chrisuu01 :

If you need help you can always ad me on msn

Thanks a lot, I will.

Quote from Chrisuu01 :

Quote from piggy501 :

Can't you go to Minuteman or the Spanish equivalent? They would do that.

Is that a place to print? In that case I know many of them here in Italy, that's not the problem

Well I have to present a project in a paper of size 168x60cm. I just opened Photoshop and created the document with 300ppi, as I usually do. But man, that's around 20.000 pixels. My computer handles it ok but the file is 800mb and I just started... I guess if I try to print it the printer will explote and I'll be the headline of the local newspaper. So I resized the whole thing to 150ppi and now the weight is around 100mb. Is it still too much? Does anybody have previous experiences printing in big size? Is 100ppi enough or it will be blurry? Thanks

I wanna see his car with LFS stickers

So it's something between a netbook and an iPod but not as portable as an iPod and not as powerful as a netbook.... piece of crap. Must be Apple...

Love that car, but I prefer the sound of the NSX or S2000

Quote from Mazz4200 :

Punk...PUNK !!

For gods sake, Punk died it's death in 1979 man, this modern day rubbish isn't Punk...

Yeah I agree, I love Offspring and some others but they're not punk. But punk didn't die in 1979, maybe in your country, but in Spain we still had some real and genuine punk after that. La Polla Records (renamed to Gatillazo), Boikot, Piperrak... and many many others. Some of them remain nowadays

Best punk album imo: La Polla en tu recto. That's a piece of art of Spanish punk

The Offspring FTW

Of course you had to mention your favourite brand (or group). What a surprise

Saying BMW sucks at motorsport is just... dumb.

Don't waste your time with [put any car brand here] fanboys, it's always an endless and pointless discussion

If you want a gaming laptop, buy a gaming laptop, which means: forget Vaio, HP, Dell, etc and buy a laptop designed for gaming.
Also forget about playing using the battery. If you have a decent hardware, it needs too much power, so gaming for more than 45 minutes is kinda hard. Besides, usually graphics cards are underclocked when using battery.

I got a MSI GT627 (Core2Quad Q9000, 4GB DDR800, 9800GTS 1024mb, 320GB 7200rm, Bluray, HDMI, 15.4" 1680x1050, etc) and quite happy with it. They main use is design (2D and 3D) but I also play sometimes. I'm used to have nice desktop computers and play with everything maxed out, and that's something I still can do with my laptop with the games I've tried: Dirt 2, Operation Flashpoint 2, Call of Duty MW2, GTA IV and many others. The score in 3DMark06 is 9700+. I personally always have the laptop on a table at home, just like if it were a desktop pc. I only use the portability when I need to take it to the school, but for the rest of the time, on a table pluged to the wall is the better way to have it. The battery is supposed to last around 2,5 hours, but don't ask me if it's true because I've barely used it.

So from my point of view, go for Asus, MSI, Sager, Deviltech, Kobalt or Cizmo, those are designed for gaming.

A gamer would never consider 2gb of ram and a 9500GT lol
I used to think as the guys who had replied, 2 cores at higher clocks is better. But you know, after having a quad core my opinion has changed

Rally Masters: Race of Champions

It was the best simulator when it came, back in 2001 or so, and nowadays only the great RBR is better.

That's amazing. It's a pity all those icons in the Windows bar, if you could change or remove them it would be even nicer
